Fractional freezing
text:
Fractional freezing is a process used in process engineering and chemistry to separate substances with different melting points. It can be done by partial melting of a solid, for example in zone refining of silicon or metals, or by partial crystallization of a liquid, as in freeze distillation, also called normal freezing or progressive freezing. The initial sample is thus fractionated. Partial crystallization can also be achieved by adding a dilute solvent to the mixture, and cooling and concen
